Online Safety Act: What Businesses Need to Know

The UK’s Online Safety Act has arrived—and with it, new responsibilities for businesses providing online services. In this episode, David Savage speaks to Anna Lucas, Supervision Director at Ofcom, about what companies need to do to comply with the new regulations, the risks of failing to act, and how Ofcom’s Digital Toolkit can help navigate the complex legal landscape.

With fines of up to 10% of global revenue on the table, businesses can’t afford to ignore these changes. But who does the Act apply to? What measures must businesses put in place? And how will Ofcom enforce compliance? Anna shares insights on the law’s real-world impact and how it’s shaping the future of online safety in the UK.
